I wonder if we can install TL2016 from MSYS2 shell using the Perl script
install-tl with the "-custom-bin" option.
BTW, I tried to build TL2016 many months ago with MSYS2/MINGW64 [1] and
there were some build issues.. I tried to call attention [2] but none
took care of it.
I think that TL W64 binaries can be created adding MSYS2/MINGW64 as new
TL platform but it need the help of TL gurus.. (as we did when Cygwin
was added...)
This could/should be one of the goals of the next 2017 release..
Ciao,
Angelo.
